Ross

I believe the answer is:

govern

<span class="explanation-format__ClueExplanation">'<span class="explanation-format__original">wield authority</span>' is the definition.<br/ ><span class="explanation-format__explanation">(I've seen this in another clue)</span><br/ ><br/ >This is all the clue.<br/ ></span>

(Other definitions for govern that I've seen before include "Manage - control" , "Rule over or regulate" , "Control, influence" , "Rule or administer" , "Run" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sun and The New York Times.
